Everyone knows that all Sunderland supporters are aficionados of the great Argentinean author and philosopher, Jorge Louis Borges, 1899-1986.

In the National Reserve Club they seldom speak of anyone else.

One of his best-known gags was about the Falklands War. He likened the conflict to: “Two bald men fighting over a comb.”

Good one Jorge. I just thought I would mention it to cheer folk up a bit.

On a completely unrelated matter, Sunderland’s fixture at Middlesbrough has now been rearranged for Wednesday, April 26.
